Iftar in London 2018

For most of us, tomorrow marks the first day of Ramadan. The first few days are undoubtedly hard; you’re grumpy, tired, and hungry. You won’t dare look at your social media which, of course, will be full of food – sorry! Over the month, you’ll become more accustomed to this new routine and will start venturing out for a few delicious Iftars. So I’ve compiled a guide to Iftar in London 2018 for you guys, featuring a couple of discount codes that are too good to miss! Also, be sure to keep an eye out on my HGAT Instagram page for weekly giveaways that includes plenty of cakes, eclairs and lots of other goodies too!
